"Where despair and hopelessness exist, those who
have the ability to take action have the moral responsibility to take action
to help those who live on the bare edge of survival. And democracy is more
than the creed of our country, it is the inborn hope of our humanity, an
ideal we must carry, a trust we must bear and pass along. And even after all
these years, we have a long way yet to travel, that is why we must all be
involved ..." - Baba J Adamu
FUTURE OF ICT IN NIGERIA
"Today, Nigerian ICT sector is at the cross roads. The direction we choose
will determine not just our future but also the legacy we leave behind for
future generations of knowledge workers in this country, who have the
creativity to dream impossible dreams and the determination to translate
those dreams into reality"...- Baba
J Adamu

“Given the emergence of
new regional dynamics in development policy and
practice, Arewa region MUST fine-tune current regional
development perspectives and
to develop new ones that are not only more in sync with
the present and future global context but with the
governance systems being currently adopted that are
becoming more and more decentralized and grassroots
oriented. States
Governors within the Arewa region must
come together to create and adopt the Arewa Regional
Economic Plan with emphasis on a balanced approach
to
development and opportunity for all diversity
irrespective of one’s tribe, social class, religious
belief and even political affiliation; and establish
targets for economic growth of the entire region taking
advantage of our Demographic Shifts, which will fuel the
growth of new sectors, markets, and service lines in our
communities. The ability of our diversity to build
strength and unity is the power that will propel the
region and consequently, the Nigerian industry, into new
dimensions of performance and inclusive growth.
Catalyzing Inclusive Growth Through ICT-enabled
solutions in healthcare, education, financial services
and public services can drive socio-economic development
and inclusion of more than 30 million citizens each
year, faster, cheaper and more effectively than
traditional models. The economic plan should be built on
current regional opportunities, collaboration and
innovation linking States macroeconomic models with
regional development and economic plan termed: Regional
Econometric Model”…President
